From the Publisher
Everyone has something stupid to say to you nowYou want to tell them all to “f**k off”You probably want to throw sh*t tooIf you want to feel less angry, you’ll have to forgive
The universe doesn’t need any of the sh*t you’re offeringBargaining is a manifestation of desperationYour loved one still won’t come backYou can give their death meaning without saying it happened for reason
Things will be hard, but they will get betterYou’re allowed to have okay days, and good days, and sucky days again tooYou’re allowed to take as long as you needIn the end, love fills the empty spaces

Simple reading
Very good book! It’s simple to read, straight to the point. Explains the stages of grief when having the loss of a loved one. It is a little profane so it’s not for every audience butI or buy multiple of these for my two son’s.Worth the money I have sure.

From a therapistâs perspective and as one whoâs grieved..this is the realistic explanation of the stages of grief and permission to experience the emotional rollercoaster with an understanding of you are not alone.

No beating around the bushâ¦
I got this for my sister-in-law as a Christmas gift, yes it sounds dark but not really. I lost my honey back in May, to murder. His killer has not been found and local police have not helped. Weâve spent this past year investigating ourselves because our city is turning slummy, finally got attention that he needed for thorough investigation. I have gotten close to her more than ever. He used to think we would never get alongâ¦lol. She says Iâm hurting a lot more than she is, but I think itâs the other way around and maybe one of us has the coping skills that the other doesnât and therefore we rely on one anotherâ¦but we cry together, laugh together and share our pain. Sheâs my family and he would be so proud to see the bond. It helps having someone there but, Iâve realized the pain in each of us is different, even though we loved the same person. He was her baby brother and I was his baby so the intensity of our loss individually and our perspectives are different. Somedays Iâm mad at the world because I donât get to be with who I wanted to be with in life and there are days sheâs angry with herself, because wasnât there to protect her baby brotherâ¦I am the baby sister with multiple older brothers. In our Native American culture death can be taboo and outcasts families at times. Murder has made it harder to accept his death. No one talks about what happened to him, thereâs not support system for us and murder is not as common as death. Everyone seems so disassociate because itâs easier to pretend nothing happened than to find answers. Murder is intensifies death x10 and adds extra steps to the grieving process it is very difficult to accept because itâs not a natural part of life, and it makes death a taboo. So this Christmas Iâm creating a self care basket for her with this book, a gratitude journal, self care vanity sets and anything distressing for her to be selfish when being alone should be comforting and not painful. Reading the back of this book feels like the inner you becoming a 3rd person potty mouthed best friend. We all use that inner voice in other occasions why not use it for getting ourselves through the hardest of times. Itâs a âyour toughest love approachâ, to yourself. why have I not heard of this book before? I hope to get myself a book too, I thought I ordered 2 copies. So If therapy didnât work (it didnât work for me eitherâ¦), and it feels like no one can understand your pain and you are hurting, buy this. I have faith in this book, it speaks my languageâ¦.straight f**** forward!

The best grief book out there
My stepdad and my best friend died 6 months apart from one another in 2022 and 2023, which frankly destroyed me. I turned to reading for help and I kept running into books that reiterated the tired “it happens for a reason” or “they’re in a better place” and it was just insulting. I was so hurt, I was angry and I felt slighted. This book so accurately captured how I felt, synthesized it perfectly in a way that didn’t make me feel so alone. It acknowledges the pain at the very beginning and at no point shies away from it. It destroys the typical tropes and provides a real understanding of how you might be feeling, the good, the bad and the ugly, well providing help for the future. It is incredibly grounding and I recommend it to each and every person who is experiencing grief.

Reality
If your like me many grief books donât quite hit the right tone, Iâm not saying thereâs anything wrong with them they just donât speak to you.This book did. Simplistic in ways boot camp in others and a big dose of reality. This sucks truly badly completely and from everything Iâve read even the books I didnât like the only way thru it is not thru it. Deal! In our house we had a saying to do the tough, grief is as tough as it gets itâs the ultimate suffering of the human heart. So go ahead say Phuket all â¦..itâs sucks.
